Brickyard 400

Channel surfing and found the race and noticed the stands were as empty as vaught Hemingway after halftime. I thought this was one of the big races. Is NASCAR starting to lose a lot of its appeal? I know I have really quit following it the last few years.

Yep, the C.O.T and Jimmy Johnson winning most races and championships, coupled with high *** gas prices and crazy *** Nascar rules; started this downward spiral that may not end for a while. Actually, the downward spiral started when Dale Earnhardt died, least that's when I started loosing interest.

100% agree. JJ killing it, COT, and having to be PC is hurting NASCAR.

Until NASCAR finally pulls the trigger on banning Knaus's cheating ***, I'll have a hard time coming back to it. I'm sick of watching JJ dominate every short, mid range, restrictor plate, and road track on the schedule, and anyone who thinks that he's doing it due to pure skill probably thought that Bonds and McGwire were legit too. There's too much money and competition in the sport today for there to be a single driver dominating like JJ has for the last decade.

Kesolowski said as much in his communication with the crew during today's race.

His equipment is sporting an advantage somewhere...

His crew is the "ole miss" of evading capture in the cheating world**

I'm a Stewart fan, but I respect every driver but JJ and occasionally Bush. The Knaus cheating is ruining it, and I don't even watch it much anymore. The only way to save it would be for Junior to catch fire or maybe some kid like Logano, but that will never happen when some owners have multiple teams that share info. Junior seems to have lost his nerve since that wreck when he got burned. Hope I'm wrong

Been going down hill since 2004. They tried to make nascar something it wasnt. They tried to "cash in" on its popularity but they forgot the thing that made it popular to begin with. Corporate greed killed the sport and now it is coming back to bite them in the ***.
